ITV fans in shock as unearthed clip of Michelle Keegan on Jeremy Kyle show goes viral
MICHELLE Keegan may have gripped the nation with her new ITV drama The Blame, but there’s one surprising TV appearance that has been doing the rounds on social media again.
It’s not the actress fronting a Netflix mini-series or portraying a soldier in Our Girl, but a forgotten stint on The Jeremy Kyle Show.
Michelle was technically on the now-axed chat show – but as her Coronation Street character, Tina McIntyre.
The soap hilariously did a crossover with Jeremy Kyle’s eponymous show for a special episode back in 2010.
The show tackled family and relationship issues and saw members of the British public work out their drama on air.
And who has more drama than the Platt family?
During the crossover episode, Michelle’s character Tina appears on the show as her boyfriend, David (Jack P. Shepherd) is accusing her of having a relationship with his brother Nick (Ben Price).
In a clip from the episode, which has been unearthed by TikTok users and is now being circulated around the app, the trio are seen at loggerheads.
“Shut up David,” Tina is seen shouting over the stage as the pair go back and forth, with Jeremy getting involved.
Later, Nick and David are seen fighting over Tina as Nick slams: “She doesn’t like him. She doesn’t fancy you, she doesn’t, it’s over!”
“You think you can fly in, Nick, and take a piece of her,” hits back David, as Tina breaks down into tears and he slams her “waterworks”.
A crying Tina then tells Jeremy: “I’m sick of him, he ruins everything. Even the thought of accusing me of sleeping with Nick, it’s not important to me right now.
“And he’s got a cheek to actually question it – you’ve got a cheek David.”
The hilarious crossover, which was to celebrate the 1000th episode of the Jeremy Kyle Show, came in the middle of Michelle’s time on Coronation Street, which she joined in 2008.
As the clip has been circulating around Tiktok, many users on the video streaming app were confused as to whether it was real or for a skit.
One user said: “If I didn’t know this was a special episode with actors, I would’ve thought this was real, it’s well good 👏😂”
“I would not have recognised her…what year is this???,” said a second of Michelle.
A third praised: “Corrie was on another level creating this with JK, it makes it look so more real.”
Michelle was just 23 at the time of filming the scenes.
She eventually left the soap in 2014, as Tina was killed off.
